RE: [microsound] Third Track



While there are "glitchy" DSP sounds scattered throughout the track, the
form is essentially that of standard trance -- unchanging 4/4 beat, periodic
snare/cymbal rushes and a rather facile four-bar chord progression. As a
result, the glitchy bits feel tacked on, or colored-within-the-lines (and
the flute I found frankly unlistenable). Not to be ungenerous, but this
doesn't really pursue the kind of *formal* experimentations which are an
integral part of microsound aesthetics.

Regarding this comment, if you're going to initiate a debate, you really
need to bring some specifics to the table.
